MATH 303 is required for B.S. and B.A. degrees in mathematics.
A two-semester sequence in the algebraic structures which lie at the founda-
tions of many areas of modern mathematics. Topics chosen from theory of
groups, rings, integral domains, and fields, coding theory, Galois theory, mod-
ules, and Euclidean constructions.
